Skeletons Invade Downtown Marshall

The City of Marshall has been invaded by 28 human skeletons which are being seen throughout the downtown business district. But before you rush through your home, locking down doors and windows, relax. The boney visitors are part of the inaugural Marshall Skeleton Fest that takes place Saturday, September 30th.

According to the official Facebook page, the kick-off party begins at 2:00 PM and will last until 5:00 PM. A Pub & Bacon Crawl will be hosted in the evening from 5:00 PM-9:00 PM.

The ghoulish festivities include events for all ages, such as face painting, food vendors and scavenger hunts. You can even have your pulse checked by a skeleton doctor. Live music featuring such hits as The Monster Mash, Thriller and Bad to the Bone will be supplied by the EcoLimes for a street dance.

The event is hosted by the Marshall Chamber & Economic Development and Choose Marshall, Michigan. To find the fun, all you need to do is to travel downtown!
